Biography:
Midlake is an American rock band from Denton, Texas, that formed in 1999. The band first gained popularity in Europe.
Midlake began in 1999 by a group of jazz students at the University of North Texas. The original lineup consisted of Tim Smith (vocals, guitars, keyboards), McKenzie Smith (drums), Paul Alexander (bass), Eric Nichelson (guitar), and Evan Jacobs (keyboards). Their initial work (under the working name The Cornbread All-Stars) consisted of funk/jazz explorations heavily influenced by Herbie Hancock.

While we were out hunting for food our house was being robbed

I caught an apple and she caught a fox
F#m Gadd9 D
So I caught a rabbit but she caught an ox
F#m Em7 D
So upon our return we found everything gone
F#m Em7
Which for us was no loss
D F#m Em7 D
We started over with a rabbit and an ox

[Chorus]
D F#m Gadd9
So they came down from the north carrying all they owned
D Em7
With a basket full of food and clothes
D F#m Gadd9
They were stopped by a weekend raid traveling the woods one day
D Em7
Tried to put up a fight but lost
D F#m Gadd9
So we asked for them to stay with us on their way
D Em7 F#m Em7 F#m Gadd9 D
To have a drink and rest and regain their strength
